Aggregation of app data to single graphs

[DanielNagy]

It would be cool if you could aggregate all applications user/session/platforms/etc into a main dashboard page?

Possibly even only show a sum of a "group/categories" of apps.

Existing platform-wise this is pretty easy to implement. We were talking about the same feature recently and I think this is a useful one. Probably it will first be available as the aggregation of all apps and later on we can discuss about grouping/tagging.

I will make sure to arrange a spot for this on our roadmap.

That would be great :)

Has there been any update to this?

Wow, it is always very nostalgic to see a request from a year ago that is not implemented :) It is not done yet since we have been busy with funnels and segmentations. As soon as we are done, we will go over this kind of very nice to have features.

Purrrfect, I've just installed the server, have big plans for it but aggregation by all apps / category is a crucial must have, especially via api read (I know I can loop over each app via api but would be nice for singular api call) :)

[osoner]

If the data from the API will suffice (no aggregated graphs etc.) I can suggest something in case you are willing to dive into the code :)

By default standart data such as sessions, locations etc. are returned through fetch.js #154. As you can see it uses the single app_id which belongs to the current application.

In order to extend this logic you can simply add another function to fetch.js like below. Note that it is using a parameter called app_ids which will basically be an array containing the app_ids you want the data for.

fetch.fetchMultiAppData = function (collection, params) {
    common.db.collection(collection).find({'_id': {$in: params.app_ids}}).toArray(function (err, result) {
        common.returnOutput(params, result);
    });
};

Then you can simply add your own route to the api (something like /o/all) that will be very similar to /o but it will have an extra app_ids parameter and you might want to check if the requester has the rights to read data for all apps in this array.

Very nice! I will give that a try, thanks!
